Concrete Replacement Specialists Inc

Very pleased with the final product. High quality and looks great. They did everything they said they would do at the price initially quoted. Showed up when they said they would show up, and completed on the schedule they had initially indicated. I would give them a high recommendation

First the Good News: David honored an estimate from a year prior (well, within $500 anyway), which other providers could not do (in fact other providers were asking 15-20% more for the same job this year). David responds to phone calls and texts during, throughout, and after the project to answer questions or address concerns. Entire crew was personable. Some Bad News: At end of 2nd day (1/2 day to prep, 1/2 day to pour), all but one of crew left, including owner who asked for check. Project was looking good (pour in place and now smoothing--I was told remaining crew would simply need to clean up and we'd be set). I wrote check and when I came out of the house an hour or so later I found a mess of plastic water bottles, concrete spills on the side of my property, all forming around concrete still in place, and a few equipment items lying off to the side. I gave them the benefit of the doubt and assumed they'd be back to finish in the morning. That didn't happen. I called and left a message for Dave in the afternoon inquiring about when the project would be cleaned and completed. That night (24 hours after the project) heavy rains created pools of water and mud in the driveway. The next morning I left a very clear message with Dave. He responded quickly from out-of-town and told me that if he couldn't get an employee over to finish the job that day (Saturday), that he would personally come on Monday. In the meantime I popped out the forming at the bottom of the driveway myself to drain the water, ran a hose to assess proper draining and cleaned up the bottles and trash. By Monday eveningI was ready to stop payment of the check, but one of the crew showed up around 6:30 PM and got to the cleaning and finishing. After a couple of hours he told me that his saw was not working and that he'd have to come back again the next night to finish the line cutting. As it turned out Dave himself came out to perform the line-cutting the next night (Tuesday), and the project was finally complete. Good News again: The sloping driveway drains well (not perfect, but likely as close to it as one could reasonably expect. It looks great!

I sent a message through Angie's List, wanting to set up an appointment for an estimate for a driveway replacement project, along with other projects. I listed three separate dates and times I could be reached by phone so we might set up a time for their representative to come to my home and give an estimate. They never called, or left a message via Angie's List. Very disappointed.

I called to request an estimate, but reached their voice mail. I left a detailed message describing the work to be done, my name, address, and phone number. I stated the phone number twice, because I know it's easy to miss a number. I never heard back from them.

This was a major project. My driveway is over 250ft long and 20 feet wide. Concrete replacement specialists removed the 47 year old cracked driveway and completely re-poured a new driveway including 6 bands of decorative bricks. The new driveway looks great.
